Ted Cruz Pwned by Satellite Expert

January 13, 2016

Ted Cruz’s claims about satellite temperature data are dismissed by the scientist in charge of producing the data in question. I hereby make a DARING PREDICTION. I predict that Ted Cruz will completely ignore the fact that Dr. Mears thinks he is misinterpreting his data. Because Ted Cruz.

Pwn /pōn/ (verb, slang): to appropriate or to conquer to gain ownership. The term implies domination or humiliation of a rival, used primarily in the Internet-based video game culture to taunt an opponent who has just been soundly defeated (e.g., “You just got pwned!”).

Last month, Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) and Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) held a joint hearing of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology (chaired by Smith) and the Senate Subcommittee on Space, Science, and Competitiveness (run by Cruz).

” common sense and reality will force Republican candidates (and even Monckton, Watts, et.al.) to reverse and repudiate their years of stupidity and willful ignorance. ” I don’t think so. The power of ideology in certain human brains is more powerful than reality. I predict the meme will become, the climates changed, no one is to blame, except maybe environmentalists, now private enterprise can provide us with climate control mechanisms that everybody is forced to contribute financially to. Just need to feed the right message to the unthinking masses. Repetition, repetition, repetition!

What I can’t get my head around is how ANYONE can listen to what comes out of Cruz’s mouth, and NOT see the lying snake he really is. He knows the truth, I can clearly see that, I can see he’s playing a game he thinks is fun. Why on God’s Green Earth can’t his supporters see it?
